Inuyasha is the main character of the game based on the manga and anime series. He is half demon and half human, with the strengths and weaknesses of both.

Inuyasha uses Tetsusaiga in a mighty show of power.History

The main male protagonist, Inuyasha is a brave but naive half-demon, the result of a relationship between a powerful dog demon Daiyokai and a beautiful human princess. Orphaned at a young age, Inuyasha is rejected by humans because of his demon (yōkai) side and looked down upon by yōkai because his human blood supposedly taints his superior yōkai blood. Despite this 'weakness' Inuyasha is over 200 years old by the third movie, proving that his blood wasn't nearly as weak as they assumed. Because of the disdain by both humans and demons, before Inuyasha met and fell in love with the powerful priestess (miko), Kikyo, he found it very difficult to trust anyone else. Inuyasha is a half demon and therefore ages differently than a normal human, so the difference between human and demon years only makes InuYasha appear around 17 years old.

Since the Jewel of Four Souls (Shikon No Tama or Sacred Jewel) was powerful enough for Inuyasha to become a full yōkai and Kikyo was the protector of the jewel, Inuyasha was motivated to follow Kikyo - at first only for the power the jewel offered. However, the two fell in love and, eventually, Kikyo talked Inuyasha into becoming human instead.

Alas, a human named Onigumo plotted to take the jewel for himself, his willingness to sacrifice anything giving him the edge he needed. He was once a bandit who was obsessed with Kikyo and he became jealous that she had fallen in love with Inuyasha. Unable to take any other action, Onigumo gave his body to a horde of demons for power and they consumed his body and soul. The union of hundreds of lesser demons with the human soul became the half demon known as Naraku.

In a deceptive attempt to gain the jewel for himself, Naraku disguised himself first as Inuyasha and then as Kikyo to deceive them into betraying each other. Enraged at Kikyo's "betrayal", Inuyasha broke into Kikyo's village and stole the sacred jewel. To defend the village and to keep him from escaping with the jewel, Kikyo shot Inuyasha with a sacred arrow pinning him to Goshinboku. Moments later, Kikyo collapsed from a wound she received from Naraku and gave final instructions to Kaede, her sister, to burn the jewel with her body so it would travel to the afterlife with her. The jewel and the girl both lost to him, Naraku sought out other means of gaining power, leaving Inuyasha to rot while pinned to the sacred tree for all eternity.

Friends

Kaede

Kaede is Kikyo's sister. While Kikyo was alive, the younger girl witnessed her final fight against the half-demon, Inuyasha. It was not until fifty years later, Kikyo long since dead and Kaede an old woman, that she realized the deception created by Naraku. Far too late to save the life of her sister, Kaede aids Inuyasha in his quest for the shards of the sacred Jewel of Four Souls, the Shikon no Tama.

Kagome sits with Inuyasha amidst the cherry blossomsKagome Higurashi

A fifteen-year-old girl, Kagome was pulled into the feudal era through a well that acted as a time-portal. Freeing Inuyasha from a curse that should have held him immobile for all eternity, Kagome first became a target then a friend of the half-demon. Joining him in a quest to reunite the shards of the sacred Jewel of Four Souls (Shikon no Tama), Kagome eased Inuyasha's guilt-ridden soul.

Inuyasha holds his love of another life, KikyoKikyo

This woman was the previous incarnation of Kagome and also love of Inuyasha's life. A cruel deception by the vile half-demon Naraku pitted the pair against each other in a tragic display and their love was lost to the winds of betrayal. Resurrected into a clay body created by Urusue's demon kiln, Kikyo was doomed to wander Japan, never knowing peace, never growing, always to remember the moment of her death - one filled with hatred and disgust.

Miroku

Miroku is a monk with a wayward hand and joy for life... perhaps too much joy... Miroku is a stead-fast friend to Inuyasha, his carefree ways calming the overwrought heart of his half-demon friend.

Myoga

Myoga is a flea demon who once served Inuyasha's father. Wanting to keep his young lord, Inuyasha, abreast of current situations, Myoga offers his guidance and wisdom when and where it's needed... unless it's on the battlefield.

Sango and Miroku share a moment.

Sango

Formerly a demon slayer, Sango makes an unlikely friend for the half demon. Aiding Inuyasha in his travels, she seeks redemption for herself and freedom for her brother, her guilt and honour driving her onward toward an inevitable confrontation with Naraku.

Shippo uses fox magic.Shippo

A thorn in Inuyasha's side, Shippo is a fox-demon orphan child rescued from the jaws of the evil Thunder Brothers. Aiding where he can, Shippo too often gets in Inuyasha's way - by eating his food! It's okay though, Shippo knows Inuyasha really cares... and if he doesn't Kagome will sit him into dirt. Either way Shippo gets all the food he wants!

Enemies

Kohaku the demon slayerKohaku

Kohaku, Sango's younger brother, is caught in the thrall of Naraku's power. Not in control of his own actions, Kohaku fights against the half-demon even as Inuyasha tries to save his body and soul from Naraku's monstrous grasp. Inuyasha fights hard for this brother to his friend, Sango.

Naraku disguised as a human princeNaraku

This vile half-demon is the very reason Inuyasha is without his love, Kikyo. Pitting the lovers against one another, Naraku hoped to gain a tainted jewel and to get rid of the meddling half-demon. Failing on both counts, all he did was incite Inuyasha's wrath, the angry half-demon willing to sacrifice anything to tear him down. Naraku has no fear of retribution, however - he is too confident in his own mighty powers.

Sesshoumaru, the aristocratic assassinSesshoumaru

Half-brother to Inuyasha by way of their father, Sesshoumaru is the bane of Inuyasha's existance. Getting in the way of Inuyasha's fight against Naraku, Sesshoumaru is cocky and arrogant and infuriating and rude... and smelly... and... bah! Inuyasha will tear him apart piece by piece if he has to!
